Siblings in racing are in the spotlight on this week’s Ron Flatter Racing Pod.

Trainer Cherie DeVaux and her assistant and younger sister Adrianne DeVaux talk about their relationship and how it has grown into working together in a stable that is coming into its own with graded-stakes success.

Scott Blasi, the longtime assistant to trainer Steve Asmussen, and his older brother Greg Blasi, an outrider at Churchill Downs, discuss growing up together around horses and how they see their roles today.

Ed DeRosa handicaps the Remington Springboard Mile, the Los Alamitos Futurity and, at Turfway Park, the Prairie Bayou Stakes.

Listener and reader feedback touches on last week’s interview with Mike Repole and on last week’s column about the 2024 Belmont Stakes* and how it has been shortened to 1 1/4 miles.

The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Google and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.
